i don't want a scooby snack, i want a twinkie :(
i just want a twinkie!
give me my f*cking TWINKIE!!!!!!!!!!!!

if you gave me a twinkie i could use it to demonstrate what the difference between knowledge and intelligence is...

no seriously, i stick with what i said last night, but i've got another analogy now, for instance... intelligence would be your puter's hd, ram etcetc. the more ram and the bigger your hd and all, the more stuff you can run on it, and the faster it runs/the easier it handles what you're trying to make it do... in this case knowledge would be anything running on your 'intelligence', so like applications/software but also like videocards and such. You can put a badass videocard in a slow puter and it won't help you playing games because the videocard is there but the supporting stuff isn't. Take this situation back to your intelligence vs knowledge question: you can stuff someone's head with math definitions by letting them learn by heart, but if they don't have the intelligence to process that information you drilled into their head, it won't do anything uhm and i forgot where i was going with this...

so yeah intelligence is the cupboard, knowledge is what you put in it. they also interact in ways that i can't explain using the cupboard/stuff theory but whatever! i still want a twinkie
